Okay,

First of all, being a Keyboard Player myself, I naturally fell in love with "Progressive Rock" in the 1970s.  The ProgRock bands which had "keyboards" as an integral part of their lineup (especially ELP & Yes) very quickly became my favourites.

I'd say that my favourite ProgRock bands, and their keyboardists would be:
Emerson, Lake & Palmer (Keith Emerson)
Yes (Rick Wakeman)
Genesis (Tony Banks)
Patrick Moraz (of Moody Blues, Refugee & Yes) and
Triumvirat (Jurgen Fritz)

Of course, there are many other Progressive Rock musicians/ band which I really enjoy.... but, I'd have to say that these guys would definately be my top picks.   Big%20smile

Howdy from Texas and welcome to the club.  I've found Tomas Bodin of The Flower Kings to be a fine keyboard man much in the ilk of those you mentioned so you might investigate their stuff.
